Growing Flat

People are disgusting
I should know. I'm one of them.
You're disgusting.

Wishing I was a Q-Tip
Doing the dirty work so people can hear
Our ears are useless
If we don't listen what's the point in an ear?

We're rusting
In our youth growing older
Becoming a waste, destroyed by our environment.

Rusting. Disgusting.
Not changing at all

The Experiment

If you could break a man in half
and take part of him away
which half would he have left?
which part of him would stay?

would he be able to laugh?
or would he only cry?
would he even care at all
that half of his body died?

his body might stand tall
while unable to really think
water drips from an eyeball
too bad he's unable to blink

or pretend this man is bright,
but no ability for affection
no friends are found in sight
when you don't know how to make a connection

put his body back intact
complete and incredible with a soul
but everyone was made like that
but if we're evolving, how are we whole?
